A nice wild Brownie from the Itchen

Last weekend I was invited by new fishing buddy Julian to fish a free stretch of the River Itchen. He had heard of a may fly hatch the previous day. Although we did not witness a hatch that day I was rewaded with this lovely wild brownie and lost another fish too. What a lovely peice of water to fish and it’s right in the middle of Winchester. Julian says he had greyling to 2lbs on his last visit.
